The Original Stretch Armstrong by Jazwares

In 1976, Kenner debuted a toy that will forever be remembered by the children of that generation : Stretch Armstrong.

Packaging : ​The outer box has a Photoshop image of Stretch Armstrong. When you open it up, the inner box reveals a plastic tray that secures the figure with a plastic bag surrounding it. Sculpt:The figure looks very similar to the original Stretch Armstrong from 1976.Paint :The paint application on the hair, eyes, eyebrows and shorts

Articulation :The head is the only point of articulation on this figure.

The Verdict:Stretch Armstrong is similar to the original version, but not completely. He is much smaller, has lighter skin, painted shorts instead of cloth, no stretch mat and the hair and eyes are colored differently than the original. I can live with those flaws to obtain a replica of the original at the fraction of the price. I also feel that having any reproduction too similar to the original is not good for the hobby. That being said, if you grew up with one and loved it, buy this now!!
